Version 2026.c extends the feature of generating native Revit elements from an IFC of piping systems. You can now convert insulation, equipment, and pipe fittings, as well as systems, pipes, and connections, by assigning previously loaded Revit families. For these elements, users can assign families previously loaded into the Revit model or automatically generate parametric families.

Improvements to reinforcement colour filters in views in the Open BIM – Revit plugin
The "Reinforcement colour filters in views" feature now detects the actual diameters of the reinforcements in the Revit model, generating only the colour filters corresponding to diameters with instances and assigning them a predefined colour automatically.

Piping system visibility filters in the Open BIM – Revit plugin
A new feature has been added that allows users to create filters in the active view of Revit to show or hide the different piping systems in the model, making it easier to visually control and manage the project.

Changes to the interface
A new toolbar has been added to the plugin's main interface to improve the accessibility and organisation of the options. It is structured in two main sections: "Settings" and "Tools".
Settings
The configuration section brings together options for customisation, conversion control and IFC data management.
- IFC options
Defines specific configurations for the import and export of models in IFC format.
Tools
The tool section includes additional tools for viewing, filtering and managing structural models, making it easier to navigate and analyse BIM content.
- Applying transparencies to structural elements
Modifies the visibility of certain structural categories in the Revit model quickly and also applies them to the views of the user's choice, without the need to modify the visibility and graphics editor in the Revit interface.
- The categories that will be available for this tool are:
- Floors
- Walls
- Structural columns
- Structural frame
- Ramps
- Structural foundations
- Stairs
- The categories that will be available for this tool are:
- Assign colour filters to reinforcements
This tool can be used to assign colours to the rebars according to their diameter for the available views selected by the user without the need to create a filter for each one of them. The colours can be customised by the user, as well as the series of colours used in the original design program.
- Information on levels
This provides specific details on project levels, facilitating project analysis and organisation.
- Search instance
Facilitates the location of instances within the Revit project.

Compatibility in collaborative work in the cloud (Construction Cloud, BIM 360)
It is now possible to work in collaborative environments by storing central models both in third-party platforms and in Autodesk's own cloud: Construction Cloud. This ensures the correct functioning of the Plugin's features and tools in a collaborative work environment.

Converting native pile reinforcement
As well as the conversion of the structural elements "piles" themselves, in this 2025.d version, the possibility of converting the reinforcement of the piles into native entities within Revit has been incorporated.
This means that the reinforcement associated with these elements can be imported and recognised as native elements in the Revit model.

New categories in the converter: IfcPile, IfcMember
In this update, two new categories have been added to the Revit native entity converter: IfcPile and IfcMember, to extend and improve the classification and conversion of structural elements.
- IfcPile
Corresponds to deep foundation elements, specifically piles, which are topped by a pile cap. With this incorporation, these elements can be correctly identified within the IFC model and, subsequently, converted to native elements within Revit.
- IfcMember
Represents steel bar-type elements that are part of a structural assembly. With its implementation, these bars will be classified as column elements or beam elements, depending on their function within the structure, thus allowing their conversion to native elements without loss of information.

Converting integrated 3D structures, steel structures and detailing
In version 2025.d, the ability to convert steel structures and 3D models integrated into native elements within the Revit environment has been added.
This feature can be used to import projects from CYPECAD or CYPE 3D that contain steel or composite structural components and their subsequent conversion to native Revit entities.

Checking permissions when sharing a contribution in the BIMserver.center project
As of version 2025.d, when clicking the "Share" option of the apps (before starting the generation of the contribution files), a check is made to ensure that the user is part of the BIMserver.center project team. If the user does not have the appropriate permissions, a warning message is displayed. This prevents the generation of unnecessary files when the user does not have editing rights.
